gpgme: Use fixed path for GnuPG binaries
By default, GPGME tries to search in $PATH for the gpg and gpgconf
binaries. This has the downside, that the library won't work by its own
and needs to have GnuPG in systemPackages or the user environment.

I've stumbled on this while working on one of the dependencies of
nixos-assimilate and nixpart (volume_key), where the testing environment
didn't come with GnuPG in $PATH and thus the tests have failed.

After testing this with a few programs using GPGME, I haven't found any
weird behavior in conjunction with the GnuPG agent.

However one possible implication could be that if the GnuPG used in
$PATH (and the config files in the user's home directory) should be
vastly incompatible, it could lead to failures.

In practice however, the GnuPG1/2 versions pretty much seem to stay
compatible within their major releases so it shouldn't pose a problem.

Build Status Issue Stats Issue Stats

Nixpkgs is a collection of packages for the Nix package manager. It is periodically built and tested by the hydra build daemon as so-called channels. To get channel information via git, add nixpkgs-channels as a remote:

% git remote add channels git://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs-channels.git

For stability and maximum binary package support, it is recommended to maintain custom changes on top of one of the channels, e.g. nixos-15.09 for the latest release and nixos-unstable for the latest successful build of master:

% git remote update channels
% git rebase channels/nixos-15.09

For pull-requests, please rebase onto nixpkgs master.

NixOS linux distribution source code is located inside nixos/ folder.
